O que gosto muito escrita da Abby, é que são experiências bem pessoais, colocadas na ficção, isso me pega, fazendo ler todo os agradecimentos para não perder nada.
De resumo, estava com expectativas de ser arrebatada pelo casal, mas não fui, isso prejudicou o ritmo da leitura. Entendo que Sloan está a sua forma, se "re-adaptando" ao que quer viver, como, novas formas, novas relações, mas ainda assim, não me apeguei. O instalove não é uma trope literária que gosto, e nessa história em especial, parece bem impulsivo e até com sinais de dependência afetiva, que me deixam menos "coração quentinho".
Uma coisa que achei importante, que faltou no livro anterior, foi a questão da adoção, que Abby resolveu bem por cima no epílogo deste livro, mas ainda assim, achei importante ela retornar a isso.
Vou seguir lendo os demais livros, para concluir esse Abbyverso criado. Mas reforço que os outros livros, em especial a segunda série, me arrebataram.

She'd mourned Brandon for two years, but once she meets Jason she is in totally over the top insta-love, and so is he. Yippee, no "I can't have kids therefore we can't be together" nonsense. But there has to be a problem or the book would be pointless. We have to wait a bit but then there it is: Jason is a musician on the way to stardom and a 14 months international tour. Yeah, not ideal. But they love each other so much, it will be ok, right? Wrong.
The rest of the book is basically misunderstandings, tears and heartbreak. Hearts constantly splinter into a million pieces, or something like that. It's a wonder there is anything of them left to shatter again! My eyes nearly broke from the eye rolling. It's a shame because it had started well. I loved Tucker the dog but I'm not sure I even liked Jason - he came across as selfish and controlling.
Remind me not to fall in love with a famous musician, it doesn't seem worth it. Also, what was the playlist about? I have to admit I completely didn't get why there was one.
It's kind of funny how the author manages one or two mentions of Nadia Cakes (her own business) in every book, LOL.

This book made me feel every single emotion and I was so immersed in this story. My favorite Abby Jimenez so far. The characters are so lovable. After The Friend Zone, I was really rooting for Sloan to find her happily ever after. As a dog lover, Tucker was such a perfect addition to this story.

Besides that though I love, love, LOVED this novel. The chemistry between Jason and Sloan right off the bat was incredible. They were so damn funny together and when they finally met up I about damn near cried. I did not expect the book to take the very emotional turn it does in the latter half. I did not like Lola throughout the whole novel and then ended up wanting to BURN THE WORLD DOWN FOR HER. She was a product of the situation she was put in and I don't blame her at all for what she did/said.
Anyways, I'm endlessly glad that my friend bought this for me to read!!!
